ā³WHAT IS TIME? ā³
Our celebratory exhibit of 10 years of our collaborative, member-made calendars are in the window downstairs from our studio at ! Please be sure to take a gander at these beauties as you pass by tonight or for the next month+!
All of the printers who made each month are too many to list on this one post, but fear not, there will be multiple posts about this in the coming days & weeks.
Thank You so much to the fine folks at SPACE, and to the members who helped put the exhibit together: .growing

Eeeee! The 10th annual 2025 Pickwick calendar is HERE!!!
Order it online or buy it in person by coming this Saturday 11/23 or to the Holiday Sale & Print Crawl
Dec. 13-15th.
This calendar is a giant labor of love by our members and has become a great tradition in our shop and community- we make this limited edition of 150 calendars and all the proceeds go directly to our shop improvement fund.
One of our favorite stats: This yearā€™s calendar has gone through a press 40 times! Thereā€™s also some fun surprises this year and weā€™re sure youā€™ll love it just as much as we do!

Weā€™ve also got a fun celebration of all 10 years coming up- more on that soon:)

Ok! Pilar here, and and I are headed home after our first Hamilton Wayzgoose- their 25th! Iā€™m sorting pics into a few dispatches (photo dumps?) for you and this first one is: SIGNS!

From the giant to the tiny, every single moment had me gobsmacked. Iā€™m happily exhausted and not as eloquent as Iā€™d like to be about this but Iā€™ll start with this:
If youā€™re a type lover, a letterpress printer, a printmaker, a designer, a Signmaker, a sign painter, a woodworker, a calligrapher, a person who appreciates print or any of the aboveā€¦. this place is THE PLACE FOR YOU! and this annual conference couldnā€™t have been a better place to be and especially right now.
